  1. Waddy

    I submitted this to the just ended Picture Poetry contest. Didn't win, but that's ok. I'd like to know what people think though. Where could it have been improved? A "waddy" is a slang term for a cowboy.

    Waddy

    The snooty unbeknownst
    Send me to the valley’s river, to hidden streams,
    A preacher in the midst of fraught motorcars.

    The quarrelsome horns

I am occassionally considered hard hearted to the plight of the members whose dues keep me in honest employment though I have never been overly tempted by the dubious benefits of welfare and unemployment.

  4. Making a list and checking it twice

    It's been an interesting few days here. I've been working to clear out some projects. The good news is that I'm about half way finished with my aunt's placemats. I really need to complete them because I'm trying to have them out by Thanksgiving. The bad news is that I can't stand the baby blanket I'm making. I have a request for a black one, and I just can't get up any enthusiasm about making the thing. I'm also hoping to try and finish at least the top of Victoria's quilt in the next few ...

  5. Hebrew Class

    I've been sitting here for about ten minutes, wondering what I was going to blog about. Sad isn't it?


    But then I finally figured it out.


    HEBREW CLASS!!!!!!


    A few weeks ago, I started going to a hebrew class, and IT'S AWESOME!!!!!!!!! The lessons aren't just about learning the language itself. There's a bible study, hebrew dancing, then the actual lesson.
